>Second, the back of the original car is black and the jambs all around seem

>to be? Is it body color on the sides and black (to match the rear panel) on
>the rear edge? Or is the whole thing body color with a masked edge on the
>back?

>Finally (for now), does anyone have a close up picture showing the rear
>panel that they could share? I'm trying to figure out where the correct
>edge is for the transition from black to body color should be. I'm sure (as
>in most things triumph) that this varied from painting-shift to painting
>shift, but want to see use a good example as a guide.
